Abstract
In this work, a novel biomass gasifier combined energy system was offered for potable water, heating load, and power generation. The system included a gasifier, an S–CO2 cycle, a combustor, a domestic water heater, and thermal desalination unit. The plant was evaluated from various aspects, i.e., energetic, energetic, exergo-economic, sustainability, and environmental. To this aim, modeling of the suggested system was conducted by EES software; then, a parametric inquiry was carried out to detect the critical performance parameters, considering an environmental impact indicator. The results showed that the freshwater rate, Levelized CO2 emissions, total cost, and sustainability index of 21.19 kg s−1, 0.563 t.MWh−1, 13.13 $.GJ−1, and 1.53 were acquired, each. Moreover, the combustion chamber is a major fount in the irreversibility of the system. Besides, the energetic and exergetic efficiencies were computed at 89.51% and 40.87%. Overall, the offered water and energy-based waste system showed great functionality in terms of thermodynamic, economic, sustainability, and environmental standpoints by enhancing the gasifier temperature.
